Broadway Bound Children’s Theatre, in association with ACT, will present Seattle’s first professional staging of Tony award winner Jason Robert Brown’s coming-of-age musical 13. This collaborative venture between the two companies will result in ten performances at ACT’s Falls Theatre, and will mark Broadway’s Bound first venture into Seattle’s professional theatre scene.
13, A New Musical is a grown-up story about growing up. Evan Goldman has it all — he’s popular, has the perfect family and lives in the greatest city in the world — New York. That is until his parents get divorced and he’s forced to move with his Mom… to Indiana. Uprooted from his old life, he has to make new friends and somehow maneuver his way through the minefield of junior high school to become part of the “in-crowd” in time for the celebration of his Bar Mitzvah. With an unforgettable rock score from composer Jason Robert Brown, 13 is a hilarious, high-energy musical for all ages about discovering that cool is where you find it, and sometimes where you least expect it.

Broadway Bound was proud to be an Educational Partner at the Seattle Symphony’s DAY OF MUSIC at Benaroya Hall. Jimmy, Jim and Lindsay spent the day meeting people, talking about our programs, handing out postcards, buttons and an occassional treat. We had a great time and look forward to our participation in the Symphony’s October 8th program.

Isn’t it wonderful?

Our spring shows recently finished their run at the beautiful Falls Theatre at ACT.

Fiddler on the Roof, Jr. ran from June 3 to June 11 and 13: The Musical! ran from June 17 to June 19. Both were incredibly successful, due to all of the hard work from our young actors and our production staff, and from support from our wonderful Broadway Bound families and supporters. Below are some pictures from both of our shows, but you can see more beautiful pictures on our Facebook page.
